What happens when you boil an egg too long?
Answers:
Iron in the yolk reacts with hydrogen sulphide gas produced as a result of denaturing protein in the egg white through addition of heat. This reaction results in iron sulphide, which manifests itself as a greenish/grey area along the outside of the yolk. The area deepens as heat continues to be added. The sulphur also gives off a mildly 'rotten' odour.
Apart from that, the texture of the white is also made more rubbery when water trapped in its protein lattice is squeezed out by the aforementioned gas.
It gets over cooked.
Nothing except the egg will be hard boiled.
The yolk turns black on the outside.
It's a nightmare. The eggs smell rotten, they pop open and have black burnt marks
depends how long the can kinda explode out of the shell
it either becomes chao ta /over cooked /soft n easily mashed
The yellow starts to turn green.
it will turn rubbery gross...
overcooked
The only thing I can think of, is crack, which is why you should time it. Twenty to twenty-five minutes, is about the right time, to boil an egg, and by all means, keep the fire low.
the longer u boil the harder it gets
